The Frances Young Tang Teaching Museum and Art Gallery at Skidmore College announces the fall programs in the screening series Whole Grain: Experiments in Film & Video. The variety of subjects explored across the season's the three programs include the relationship between text and image (September 26), the work of Tibetan-American artist Tenzin Phuntsog (October 16), and the work of the late Harry Smith (November 16).
This screening, programmed by The Machine That Kills Bad People, features Jeanne Liotta’s short film Observando el Cielo (Observing the Sky) (2007) and Annik Leroy’s In der Dämmerstunde – Berlin (From Dawn to Night – Berlin) (1980).
Jeanne Liotta’s Observando el Cielo is an exploration of the cosmos. Liotta investigates the cosmic landscape at the intersection of art, science and philosophy. Through seven years of celestial observations captured on 16mm film, she reveals a world that is mysterious and profound.
Co-curated by artist Zara Joan Miller, this evening explores several approaches by artists thinking through non-conforming bodies and their radical potentials.
The programme brings together several works by Miller, into a conversation with material made by other artists, resulting in a layered interaction between filmmakers seeking new ways to frame the rhythms of the body.
